COLT Third Model “Thuer” Single Shot Derringer
Description: COLT Third Model “Thuer” Single Shot Derringer 19 & 20th Cent HIDEOUT Self-Defense Pocket Pistol Here we present a Colt Third Model Thuer Deringer, also known as the New Model Deringer, made circa 1905. In 1870 Colt’s purchased National Arms Company and began producing a Deringer pistol based on its design. This became Colt’s First Model Deringer and it was Colt’s first single shot pistol. It was followed in quick succession by a very similar pistol, called Colt’s Second Model Deringer. Both of these pistols were chambered for .41 rimfire and featured a barrel that rotated counter-clockwise for loading and unloading. In the same year, a Colt employee, F. Alexander Thuer, patented an altogether different design. His Deringer had a barrel that pivoted to the right on a vertical axis for loading and unloading. Instead of using a manually operated latch to open, his used a very positive, spring-loaded catch and detent that did not require anything but a firm twist of the barrel. This spring-loaded catch also acted as an automatic ejector, which was very handy for a single shot self-defense pistol. These were sold alongside the other two models as the Third Model Deringer, but are now known to many as the Thuer Model. The Thuer was far and away the most successful of the three. These were very refined, very handy conceal and carry pieces all the way through 1912, when semi-automatic firearms took the lion’s share of the market. The top of the barrel is marked “-COLT-”. The left side of the frame is marked “41 CAL”. This one features a brass frame and both the barrel and frame are silver plated. The overall condition is near fine. This pistol has been re-plated and the finish is nearly complete. The markings are clear and legible. The walnut grips are in great shape. The bore is clean with good rifling. The action on this pistol is excellent. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 2-1/2 inches. Caliber: .41 Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $550 #7087 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes |
